We're excited to share an incredible milestone: Governor Wes Moore has signed Maryland's MFT portability bills, HB 628 and SB 409, into law. This achievement marks a significant step forward for Maryland, becoming the second state in the Access MFTs initiative to enact such groundbreaking legislation.
The signing of these bills is a testament to the relentless advocacy efforts of many, including AAMFT, MetroMFT, and a coalition of supportive partners. This victory not only underscores the unity and resilience of the MFT community but also sets a precedent for future progress and advancement.
This win holds immense significance, not just for Maryland but for the entire MFT profession. It serves as a beacon of inspiration for other states and opens up new avenues of opportunity for MFTs nationwide. By acknowledging the pivotal role MFTs play in providing mental health care, these bills represent a significant stride toward expanding the profession's influence and reach.
As we celebrate this historic occasion, we urge continued support for our advocacy efforts. Your voice is essential in propelling further advancements in licensure portability.
